Professional, Experienced, Passionate Teacher and Tutor

I believe that all students can and will achieve academic success given appropriate instruction; i.e., instruction that is differentiated according to students' specific needs, learning styles, interests, and personal goals. As a classroom teacher and as a personal tutor, I have seen almost miraculous results in a relatively short period of time, both in terms of academic achievement and student confidence. Passion and enthusiasm for learning is contagious, and I am a carrier. For a dedicated instructor, nothing is more satisfying than watching a student "catch" the learning bug.
After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I t ... read more

My comments on tutoring Government : Focused on American History and thus government while earning my B.A. in History at the University of Miami; Practicing attorney for nearly seven years with expert understanding of the legal system and branches of government.

I have over 5000 hours (nearly 10 years) of tutoring experience, including the SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT, LSAT and other selected subjects. I have been helping high school and college students get accepted to undergraduate and graduate programs all over the United States, including UF, Michigan, Stanford, FSU, UCF, and many others. My first teaching experience was with the Department of Juvenile Justice when I was fresh out of college. It was, believe it or not, a lot of fun! When I went on to Law School I was fortunate enough to be selected as a Teaching Assistant for Legal Research & Writing and Appellate Advocacy. I also tutored first year law students as a member of the Florida Law Review. Recently, I spent a quarter teaching bankruptcy law to paralegal students in Madison, WI, and had a great time doing so. My students seemed to enjoy it nearly as much as I did. Now that I am ba ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and all aspects of teaching. I believe we are all capable of learning our required material, that every one of us just learns in different ways and at a different pace. I am energetic, encouraging, patient, and considerate. I want to see people succeed and I am here for anyone that needs help. I like to use traditional and non-traditional methods until I can figure out the best way the child is going to learn. I want to make an impact in our children's lives to show them learning can be fun, and for most, it is easier than anticipated.
As a later graduate (36 years young), I consider myself to be driven, goal-oriented, and motivated. I have worn a lot of hats throughout my career and I have trained or taught many people across all age groups. I've earned my BA in History and am currently working on my MA in American History. With my experience and knowledge, I would ... read more

Enthusiastic, Fun and Creative

-Tutoring experience with children and adults alike. I have spent time helping classmates through out my years as a student. I enjoy to watch other people succeed and do better at the subject they find challenging as I can relate to such frustrations. -Enthusiastic, creative and patience are some of my qualities that I love using while I explain. I like to believe that it enhances the ability to remember and learning about the subject. -Knowledgeable with great communicative skills. I like to talk and communicate with the student, learn and adjust to their needs and abilities.
When I teach someone I like to do take them through steps for better understanding. Creativity and uniqueness to each lesson can set a better grasp on the subject with the use of images/ illustrations, examples ,comparisons and a bit of humor.

Tutoring is not my part-time job, it is a full time endeavor. I tutor in many subjects including Elementary, Middle and High School curriculums. I tutor all ages. By working with my students, their parents and teachers, we formulate a plan and goals for our sessions. Sometimes I am a tutor for a test, or a coach for a project or a study skills adviser. I have experience working with students with ADHD and those with specific learning issues and IEP's.

Specializing in language skills, logic, and reasoning.

As a contented student at Full Sail University, I am pursuing a Master's in Fine Arts in Creative Writing. I volunteer for Graduate Honors research in Latino/a Caribbean Studies at the University of South Florida, and serve as a freelance consultant for an aspiring media entertainment company. In addition, my Bachelor’s Degree in Literary Studies, Associates Degree in Education, and professionally polished communication skills are invaluable as a tutor. I have learned to be disciplined and skilled in the acquisition of critical thinking, written communication, analysis, logic and reasoning. To be literate and articulate in various languages is not only handy, but eases the transition of language barriers which allows me to continually acquire polished skills in all forms of expression.

My comments on tutoring Government : I have extensive experience teaching government and I have a master's in social studies.

My style is student centered. I always try to provide a positive atmosphere for learning. My jokes were a technique to help accomplish that goal. As a GED teacher I always began with a pretest and documented student progress to correct any deficiencies. I believe in positive reinforcement and helping students achieve their goals which gives us both a sense of accomplishment.
I am an honors graduate of U.S.F. with forty years of teaching experience. In addition to my B.A. and M.A. degrees, I completed all cousework for the ED.D. I have taught FCAT preperation in middle school in math and reading. I have also taught GED Prep in the evenings. I taught junior high math one year. I have also written two books. One is a history jokebook. The other is a memoir of humorous classroom incidents. I believe that these experiences qualify me to tutor social studies, reading, and math.

My comments on tutoring Government : Our government is large and quite confusing. I'll teach you how to remember which branch does what and why.

I go with the styles that fit the student. I generally use the first couple of visits to assess what works best for the student and then work with the student in a calm and patient yet firm manner. I do not try to force results, every student learns differently and has different aptitudes. Therefore, it wiser not to push the student too hard for results, rather I push myself to find new and inventive ways to help students learn the material.
Took three years of college courses on Psychology at Ashford University, trained with a Computer Troubleshooting Specialist for four years, have two books of my own written word poetry published. In my time at Ashford I picked plenty of shareable skills, study skills, time management, and using my keyboard to it's fullest potential to meet deadlines. While training with the Computer Troubleshooter, I learned more about how to use software and t ... read more
